I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 303 - 278. Moluo

The First Administrative District, also known as the Imperial Central Court.

Here, all major official organizations of the Empire, such as the three Church Courts, Central Court Council, Imperial Holy Department, Apocalypse Knight Order, and the Imperial Star Bureau…

The Imperial Star Bureau is situated in a very remote wilderness, with a kilometer-high spire piercing into the clouds.

This is a special agency independent of the military-political system, primarily responsible for monitoring the star phenomena of the Star Realm.

Every creature in the world corresponds to a star in the Star Realm; however, most are mere "Star Dust," insignificant and undetectable.

It is only after advancing to a First Rank Spirit Master that one's corresponding "Star Dust" brightens; if one awakens a Spiritual Artifact, the brightness increases even more, becoming a "Star Spirit."

Above Star Spirits are very large stars.

Only deities possess their own corresponding stars, representing their divine power.

Of course, there are rare exceptions.

Such as—Sirius!

"Director! Director!"

The white-haired old man lay in his rocking chair, swinging leisurely, deep asleep. He smacked his lips and turned over, his tone impatient, "Don't bother me with trivial matters; decide on important things yourselves."

The clerk, cloaked in a star-blue cape, smiled and said, "Director, we detected an anomaly in Sirius number two. Would you say this is a trivial or a significant matter?"

Snap—The white-haired old man suddenly sat up, all traces of drowsiness gone as he instantly appeared in front of a star observation platform.

The gathered clerks saw the director's arrival and quickly cleared a path.

The Star Realm, unlike the real night sky, requires abstract monitoring methods, including specially made star map lenses and learning the 'Divine Grace Spiritual Clothes.'

Only believers of a certain deity could project their vision into the Star Realm without going blind.

The old man, looking through a Boluo Level Star Map Lens into the Star Realm, saw darkness, with no trace of Sirius.

Almost half a year ago, when the second Sirius appeared, the Star Bureau monitored two identically dark planets orbiting a star symmetrically.

Unfortunately, they were obscured by the Star Mist a few seconds later, losing trace of Sirius.

"Vanished again?" Seeing nothing, the old man frowned as he stood up.

A clerk quickly stepped forward, handing him a set of drawings while speaking solemnly, "Sirius number one remains untraceable, but Sirius number two appeared for 23 seconds. According to our calculations, this is likely the duration it is consuming for advancement. Based on the intensity of the halo, its Spiritual Pressure is currently estimated to be at Fourth Rank."

"Fourth Rank, huh..."

Less than half a year from trainee to becoming a Fourth-order Spirit Master, as easy as drinking water.

The old man's thin eyebrows tightly furrowed; truly deserving of the title calamity star, too heaven-defying. Allowing it to continue growing would be unimaginable.

He took the drawings; the star map was pitch black with a dark planet in the upper right corner, emanating a milky-white halo.

This past half-year, the Star Bureau had been searching for traces of the two catastrophe stars in the Sirius Domain.

Logically, each of their advancements should have been an opportunity to expose them.

Unfortunately, Sirius number one remained undetectable for unknown reasons, while Sirius number two had shown two extremely faint lights, representing two advancements.

Regrettably, the lights were too dim and disappeared too quickly to be located.

Only this time, having advanced into the Extraordinary Realm, the light was unprecedentedly bright. Even though it appeared for only about twenty seconds, it was enough to pinpoint its location!

The Director turned around: "Where is he?"

"Near the border of the Northern Territory, in the Moluo Sea Area, sector forty-nine, coordinates 291.12.03.09. According to records, it's a military base under the jurisdiction of Lidong Army, on Xize Island."

"The Moluo Sea Area, huh..."

The white-haired old man contemplated for a moment; he remembered that a member of the Wolf Hunting Team was in the Moluo Sea Area.

The Wolf Hunting Team, a secret team established two years ago when the first Sirius appeared, had members spread throughout the Empire and had found nothing for two years.

They even suspected the target might be in the Evil Realm.

But now it seemed not so.

At least Sirius number two hadn't escaped beyond the Empire's borders.

In contemplation, the old man flipped his withered hand, and a white pigeon condensed out of thin air, flapping its wings and leaping into the colorful mirror ahead, vanishing without a trace.

Besides having a large amount of spiritual material, Xize Island also had various military-grade ships.

Xia Feng's Nash Space now had an enormous capacity, so he cleared out all the ships directly.

Capsule ships, cone-shaped ships, cloud shuttle spaceships, small star wheels... Although they weren't necessarily useful, he looted them first anyway.

In addition, there were also large amounts of daily necessities and food.

Mu Qingtong also joined the looting team. She also had a space called the "Inner Stock Space of Fei," which was an interesting name.

However, her space was only 5 cubic meters, so she only packed some spiritual materials and a large number of candied hawthorns.

Regrettably, the fortress didn't have soy milk, which was a disappointment!

After clearing out the weaponry of the fortress, Xia Feng used the Blood Beast's Shadow to devour all the corpses. He then spread a very thin layer of the Blood Beast across the entire island, instantly corroding the ground and buildings, obliterating all traces.

The already disarrayed island became even more dilapidated, pockmarked and eerily silent.

Over these months, he had accumulated a large amount of Blood Beasts, and even after cleaning up the island, he still had more than half left, which he couldn't use up.

While dealing with these tasks, Mu Qingtong also managed to decrypt the compass obtained from the Apocalypse Knights.

It contained footage of Pang Xize admitting to his conspiracy with the city lord of White Emperor City and the Garden.

Watching the footage, Xia Feng stroked his chin thoughtfully.

Although Pang Xize hadn't told the complete truth in the footage, the compass was still very useful. For example, by cutting the footage where Pang Xize lied and only keeping the first half where he told the truth...

Moreover, one part of the dialogue caught Xia Feng's attention:

"Pang Xize, have you used the souls of a hundred thousand soldiers to create the 'Desire for Life Stone' in the last thirty years?"

"Yes."

The Desire for Life Stone... Although he didn't know what it was, it must be the main reason for the betrayal of the hundred thousand soldiers.

After making a note of this item, Xia Feng gave a few directions to the Half-Dragon army before letting them fall into slumber.

He wasn't planning to take the Half-Dragon army with him, and of course, it wasn't feasible to do so.

Thus, it was better to leave them there for the Lidong Army to take over.

Such a precious Half-Dragon army, the Lidong Army would surely spend a great amount of resources and make every effort to train them.

Using the enemy's resources to cultivate one's own force, and with the Dragon God Seal in place, if the Lidong Army tried to probe their memories, they would encounter nothing but emptiness, perfect!

After ensuring everything was handled without omission, Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong used the blue whale passage to return inside the body of the blue whale at White Emperor City.

However, Xia Feng was puzzled by the absence of Freya.

"Where are the people?"

The two circled a few times over White Emperor City, the world dim and deserted.

Xia Feng couldn't help but frown; logically, Ms. Fu wouldn't wander off, and after such a long time, the old soldiers should have returned to White Emperor City as well.

But there was no one around.

"Something's wrong, very, very wrong."

In contemplation, he flashed into the dense forest to sense around.

One of the functions of the Nash Saintly Armor, Forest Protection: within the forest, the Spiritual Sense could merge with the forest, allowing one to see all scenery within a thousand meters.

Xia Feng began to swiftly fly through the forest and soon saw a man in armor leaning against a tree stump.

The man was covered in blood, his armor cracked, his disheveled white hair and his face partly covered by a translucent visor. His lips were turning purple, repeatedly coughing up blood, as if he had been through a bloody battle, appearing extremely miserable.

This man was the leader of the old soldiers, Li Zaisi.

But at this moment, his eyes were hollow, his twisted Spiritual Body close to leaving his body.

He was dying.
